Setting the port parameters is done with the MODE program.

Setting the port for "BINARY" can not be done in MS-DOS.
You HAFTA write or obtain some code.
MS-DOS actually has a built-in error message saying
"Cannot copy binary to or from a device" if you try
to use the /B option of COPY when copying to or from
COM.
